Unless otherwise specified, all sizes in this post are listed in women's.
1. A waterproof ski jacket ideal for whale watching in Alaska, trekking past glaciers in Iceland, and every cold activity in-between. TL;DR: This is the outerwear you'll want to pack for your next frigid vacation.
2. A faux fur trim parka destined to fall into the "I should've bought this sooner" section of your wardrobe. The neutral hue paired with massive pockets = outerwear perfection.
3. A hooded puffer one reviewer refers to as the "perfect travel coat." Not only is this waterproof and warm, but the lightweight material easily shrinks down to fit into a packing cube when not in use — ideal for long trips accompanied by small carry-ons.
4. A water-resistant duvet puffer if the mere mention of Disney's Frozen sends shivers down your spine. I can't imagine an activity more dreadful than building a snowman but, if you're going to do it, do it in this.
5. A hooded coat because the LBD is all but irrelevant when temps begin to drop. You know what steps up in its absence? A black puffer. And *this* one checks off all the boxes. It's even got thumbholes.
6. A hooded puffer available in a gorgeous lipstick red hue, perfect for folks who are looking to add a splash of color to the sea of neutrals residing in their wardrobe.
7. An oversized faux shearling jacket so soft, you'll basically feel as if you're wearing a combination of your favorite blanket and most cuddly teddy bear. Comfortable + super on-trend + much more affordable than your typical piece of outerwear = bliss.
8. A fluffy faux fur coat for days in which the temps are frighteningly low but you already agreed (unfortunately) to dinner plans with friends. May a cocktail and this jacket ease your annoyance.
9. A hooded parka equivalent to wearing a deliciously cozy blanket, cc: an ultra soft faux fur liner. Throw in a drawstring waist to cinch in a silhouette and you may have just uncovered the perfect piece of outerwear.
10. A quilted jacket if you're bored of basic neutrals (buh-bye cropped black puffer I've been wearing since 2017) but still want outerwear that can be paired with any 'fit. Say bienvenue to the shiny twilight mauve below.
11. A hooded coat available in seven neutral colors that won't clash with any accessories, meaning you'll finally be able to rock the highlighter yellow gloves your grandmother knit for you (not a personal story).
12. A Kenneth Cole anorak jacket with the following star qualities: it's quilted, lined with a faux fur trim, cinches at the waist, has two deep front pockets, and oh yeah, it's currently 64% off.
13. A parka dubbed the "ultra-light down" thanks to an impressive fabric that manages to be immensely warm without making wearers feel as if they're stewing in their own sweat.
14. An oh-so-soft overcoat that is the outfit. A black turtleneck, dark wash jeans, and black booties is all you'll need to throw on to rush off on your merry way.
15. A faux-shearling moto jacket that looks like it would cost upward of $7 trillion (*giggles nervously* right on budget) but thankfully, it does not. Consider this the cold weather equivalent of a blazer: You'll look ultra put-together when you slip this on over any outfit.
16. A duvet wrap puffer that embodies the phrase "all bundled up" thanks to a 100% PrimaLoft fabric that provides impressive swaddle-like insulation, perfect for cold days in which one can see their own breath before their eyes.
17. A quilted puffer cleverly designed to retain heat and prevent cold from seeping in: a stand-up collar, tight-but-comfortable elastic cuffs, and a drawstring hem are to thank for that.
18. A knee-length sherpa cardigan coat you'll regret not having purchased, like, 10 years ago. This is perfection in outerwear form: chic, warm, cozy, and can be layered over fancy and casual outfits alike.
19. A puffer jacket if you want a timeless piece of outerwear that has a bit of extra zhush, which the faux leather and faux shearling trim deliver perfectly.
20. A cropped faux fur jacket that's warm enough to get you from point A (your doorstep) to point B (your Uber). If you plan on being indoors for the night and don't want to coat check a heavy-duty parka, opt for this stylish layer.
21. A hooded puffer ideal for everything from outdoor runs (I'm judging) to pesky errands that cannot be put off despite the freezing temps. The crème de la crème of this coat is, of course, a removable release-buckle belt.
